- Summary:
- The Mill & The Cross stunningly recreates one of the great masterpieces of painting, Pieter Bruegel the Elder's The Way to Calvary. It brings the viewer inside the painting with immersive period detail and amazing digital effects. The daily life of 16th century Flanders is rendered with astounding detail, such as the crusading Spanish militia, who abuse Protestants with brutally violent tactics. It's a one of a kind marvel of art historical investigation that brings a great painting to life.
